Hey boys and girls...This is my second grow. Last year I purchased my clones and planted outdoors. I used some miracle grow, and basic watering nutes. Also...very cheap soil..typical newbie move. I dove right in wothout doing any research...just a few tips from some friends. This year, I have the 3 clones really early in my room...under a couple CFL's and I have lots of questions about watering, nutes, and getting ready to transplant outdoors in a month or so. Anyone willing to help...it'll be greatly appreciated. -Krazy
 
Pretty much everyone will help but you may need to be more specific, like a question? The best tip I usually handout is this. utube has many videos even some by well known persons. Google has a link at the top of the page for books, in there you will find many books, chapters, info free. The faq button on this page leads to some good info and seems to be getting better. If you've got questions post them. You'll get answers. I'm 7 months on a perpetual grow and I find people generally answer any reasonably intellegent question. "dude, can I like grow something in a coffee can under my bed with a flashlight?" not so much...
 
Well I have my 2 blueberry's in two gallon pots, under two CFL's, in my closet with a small fan for circulation. One 9" the other 16". I got them from a firend in cups and transplanted them using kellogs that i bought at home depot, and I'm really NOT a fan.
I'm more so, just temporarily holding them there until I can get them outside...The kellogs is too coarse...more like bark almost. It doesn't retain water very well, so I get way to much drainage when I water. That problem I CAN remedy, but my questions pertain to...
how much should I water...what else besides the Pure Blend Pro Grow should I be using for nutes. I tried a half gallon each tonight and half of that drained out...So I'll try 1/4 gal. each in about a week. Looking for recommendations on good...high quality, organic nutrients, in Nor Cal. I have read through these forums for two days, as well as related sites...lots of good info, but I need info specific to my situation...all help is appreciated. And thatnks for the links to the bible, been meaning to get my hands on one. -Krazy
 
One plant actually started to flower in my friends care...and then reverted back to veg. Also, they both had mites and one point but we are all clear now...moving on...I get the Green Crack mother next week and hope I'll have all the kinks worked out in my program by then...Thanks again all. -Krazy
 
I switched tp fox farms nutes awhile back. Good results and getting better. and if your looking to do a soil organic grow you need to check out "subcool". One of the subthreads in the forums area. I've been reading some stuff in there that is very good. Might be in the "Organic" board? water sparingly in veg. I water about every 3rd day in soil. Water SLOWLY. let the soil soak up what it can then add more. It will retain better.
